Power Connection; Video Input And Output Connections (Video Models Only); Audio Input And Output Connections (Audio Models Only) - Extron electronics Matrix 50 Series User Manual

Power connection

AC power connector — Plug a standard IEC power cord into this connector
1
to connect the switcher to a 100 to 240VAC, 50 Hz or 60 Hz power source.

Video input and output connections (video models only)

All video input and output connections to the Matrix 50 Series switchers are
RCA-to-BNC Connector
RCA Connector
HDTV/component video inputs (three video module
2
models only) — Connect HDTV, component video,
RGsB, or RsGsBs video inputs to these BNC connectors
for each input.
S-video inputs (two video module models only) —
Connect S-video inputs to these BNC connectors for
each input.
Composite video inputs (single video module models
only) — Connect composite video inputs to these BNC
connectors for each input.
HDTV/component video outputs (three video module models only) —
3
Connect HDTV, component video, RGsB, or RsGsBs video outputs to these
BNC connectors for each output.
S-video outputs (two video module models only) — Connect S-video
outputs to these BNC connectors for each output.
Composite video outputs (single video module models only) — Connect
composite video outputs to these BNC connectors for each output.
The component video and S-video Matrix 50 Series switchers can also switch
video lower on the video food chain by using only two or one BNC(s). If
switching a different video format, ensure that the same video planes are used
on the switcher output as on the input.
The Matrix 50 Series Switchers do not alter the video signal in any way. The
signal output by the switcher is in the same format as the input.

Audio input and output connections (audio models only)

Connections for balanced and unbalanced audio inputs — Each input has a
4
made with female BNC connectors. Some types of
video output devices do not have BNC video
output connectors. For these cases, a suitable cable
or connector adapter is necessary between the
device output connector and the BNC input
BNC Connector
connector of the switcher.
The captive screw connector can easily be inadvertently plugged partially
into one receptacle and partially into an adjacent receptacle. This
misconnection could damage the audio output circuits. Exercise care to
ensure the captive screw connector is plugged into the desired input or
output.
3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connector for balanced or
unbalanced stereo audio input. Connectors are included
with each Matrix 50 Series switcher, but you must supply
the audio cable. See figure 2-5 to wire a connector for the
appropriate input type and impedance level. High
impedance is generally over 800 ohms.
